lyrics

G, D, C

I'm not a poet I just know how to rhyme
I'm not a singer I can just carry a line
I'm not a musician I just know how to keep time
But I guess this gig is working out just fine

I'm not a man I just tend to look like one
I think I do a pretty good job of looking young
But I feel so goddamn old, counting all the things I've done
But at least I don't shrivel in the sun

I'm not educated cuz no one talked to me
Except the books inside my room who knew knowledge was free
I'm just a girl who likes to read cuz words will help you see
The truth about how everything can be

I'm not a traveler I just don't have a place that's mine
And if I do 3000 miles away seems too hard to find
I guess I'll find my home all things happen in due time
I just hope I have a bed to lay in when I die

I'm not a sinner if I don't believe in God
There's no rules but my own my mistakes are all I've got
They shape me better than I could have ever thought
There's no use trying to keep up that facade

So I leave you with the idea that I'm mine
There's nothing you could ever do to make me change my mind
I'll just try to be the best I can to hell with thinking I
Will ever be someone that you thought for the first time
